So i had an interesting question today from friend. Hes in the law enforcement field, and is a gun enthusiasts/collector.
Question, A bolt action rifle, capable of 1000yds and being effective on 2 legged threats. $1000 or less not including optics or extras. Needs to be 100% good to go out of the box except for glass.
My reccomendation was a savage 110 in 308. Common gun, good parts available in case of repairs. Common cartridge, capable of 1000 supersonic with proper bullet selection.
What would you reccomended as a, good to go off the shelf rifle, with those criteria?
